Abstract
We report a case of reconstruction of the upper lip in the male using a prefabricated hair-bearing island flap. The flap was made by implantation of a superficial temporal vascular bundle with microvascular anastomoses to the facial vessels. We conclude that the technique is a useful alternative to other methods of reconstruction because of its reliable blood supply.Mesh:
